will increase its 2008 Lucerne lineup with two new models available at
dealerships beginning in April. The Lucerne Super and Lucerne CXL
Special Edition reflect Buick’s commitment to bringing a greater
variety of premium products into its portfolio.

“Lucerne Super and Lucerne CXL Special Edition epitomize Buick’s new
level of refinement and our effort to deliver the vehicles that today’s
customers demand,” said Jim Bunnell, Buick-Pontiac-GMC general manager.

decklid. Inside, CXL Special Edition has perforated leather seat
inserts, and contrasting stitching on the seats, console armrest and
door trim. Lucerne CXL Special Edition models will be available in

including a five-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and
four-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper protection.
